Swedish philosopher

Gustaf Svante Henning Arrhenius, born June 28, 1966, is a Swedish philosopher.

He is a professor of practical philosophy at Stockholm University, holding a Ph.D. in philosophy from the University of Toronto and a Ph.D. in practical philosophy from Uppsala University.

Arrhenius is known for his research in moral philosophy and political philosophy, with a particular focus on issues related to future generations. His research in population ethics has had a significant impact, especially through the impossibility theorems he has proven in the field and his introduction of the Sadistic Conclusion.

Since November 2014, Arrhenius has been the director of the Institute for Futures Studies in Stockholm.
